Genes affected

BRCA2 (HGNC:1101): (BRCA2 DNA repair associated) Inherited mutations in BRCA1 and this gene, BRCA2, confer increased lifetime risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer. Both BRCA1 and BRCA2 are involved in maintenance of genome stability, specifically the homologous recombination pathway for double-strand DNA repair. The largest exon in both genes is exon 11, which harbors the most important and frequent mutations in breast cancer patients. The BRCA2 gene was found on chromosome 13q12.3 in human. The BRCA2 protein contains several copies of a 70 aa motif called the BRC motif, and these motifs mediate binding to the RAD51 recombinase which functions in DNA repair. BRCA2 is considered a tumor suppressor gene, as tumors with BRCA2 mutations generally exhibit loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the wild-type allele. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Aug 16, 2022	The BRCA2 c.8918G>A; p.Arg2973His variant (rs80359143) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer, but without clear disease association (Alsop 2012, Fackenthal 2012, Morgan 2010, Pal 2005). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38194), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0040% (10/249436 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 2973 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.449). In vitro functional analyses demonstrate no effect on homology directed repair (Hart 2019, Richardson 2021). However, given the limited clinical and functional data, the significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Alsop K et al.

Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Oct 04, 2023	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8918G>A (p.Arg2973His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 249436 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (4e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.8918G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer (example, Alsop_2012, Fackenthal_2012, Pal_2005). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. A Japanese case-control study reported the variant as "benign" due to its presence in controls and absence in cases (Momozawa_2018). One co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA2 c.1219_1219delC, p.Gln407Argfs, BIC), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant on HDR activity (Hart_2019, Richardson_2021). HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group. This working group has recommended strong functional evidence (ACMG BS3) as sufficient weightage for categorization as likely benign (Tavtigian_2018). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as likely benign (n=5) and VUS (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
